Wheel Hub Assemblies
Four details that change the sourcing brief
Fitment decisions
Integrated hub or serviceable bearing?
Use the original repair design to determine which route is appropriate for a platform.
| Check | Integrated hub unit | Serviceable bearing |
|---|---|---|
| Interface | Confirm hub flange offset and pilot diameter from the drawing. | Compare bore, outer diameter and width against the knuckle and hub. |
| Sensor | Confirm the ABS encoder side and the wheel speed sensor interface. | Ask which face carries the magnetic encoder before pressing the bearing. |
| Installation | Ask what hardware ships with the unit and how bearing preload is set. | Follow the vehicle procedure for press loads, seating and seal lip orientation. |
| Order impact | Fewer separate pieces for the workshop, with the whole assembly carried as a SKU. | Retains a separate repair part on eligible platforms and requires the appropriate service tools. |
Three checkpoints before a purchase order
01 · Lock the reference
Supply the OE cross reference, platform and axle position. Keep superseded numbers visible and record which revision the supplier priced.
02 · Compare the same scope
Match the hub flange and encoder to the requested drawing. Compare MOQ, sample terms and named Incoterm separately from unit price.
03 · Release against records
Agree which sample checks, lot marks and pack labels to review. Record the buyer's disposition before planning consolidation.

Questions before you send the brief
Yes. Include the vehicle year, platform and axle position. A cross reference starts the shortlist. Check flange geometry, encoder location and hardware scope against a drawing or sample before committing.
A catalog listing can reduce the number of specifications to agree when its revision and contents match. A custom pack can support channel labeling or hardware changes and may require separate packaging approval. Confirm SKU availability, minimum quantity and scheduling in each quote.
One supplier can simplify change control for an exact revision. A second route can broaden coverage when one source cannot quote the full range. Compare sample evidence, packaging and lot tracking separately before consolidating orders.
For wheels give PCD, offset (ET), center bore, rim diameter and width, load rating, finish and vehicle. For tires give size, load index, speed rating, duty cycle and tread pattern. State quantity, target market and destination port for each line.
Send the part reference you have
Start with the OE number or drawing revision. Add target quantities and note any dimensions or interfaces still open for review.
